Hey Guys:

Anyone got a Spectrum K4 Pacific and had to remove the shell? I thought I knew how but I was thinking of the preceeding "Plus" version.

Any help would be appreciated?

Thanks,
Gareth

Have you tried Bachmann's web site? They have some diagrams for their locos.

Ken;

do you mean unscrew the pilot truck screw?

Can't see any screw under the trailing truck when I swing it either side....

From you! We can't tell what version it is, so maybe I would be able to see something in some closeup pics.
